MODE F CONSTRUCTING COOKING-STOVES.

Specification of Letters Patent No. 930, dated September 19, 1838.`

To all whom t may concern Y Be it known that I, JORDAN L. Mo'rr, of

Y Vthe city of New York, State of New York,

have invented certain Improvements in the Manner of Constructinof Stoves for Cooking; and I do hereby dDeClare that the following is a full and exact description thereof.

My improved stove, Y in its general construction resembles the well knownY nine plate stove, but instead ofplacing the fire below the oven, as is .usually done in the nine plate stoves, it is placed above it; the

.chamber of combustionbeing between the top plate of the oven and the upper, or top plate of the stove; I am aware that the placing of the fire above the oven is not initself new, and taken alone I do not therefore present this as constituting any part .ofmy invention, but I have in this stoveso combined and connected the fire place, so located, with the other parts of the stove, asn-to give'to the whole an operation essentially new.

Y In the accompanying drawings Figure 1, represents the general A"appearance lof the stove, in perspective. Fig; "2' is a vertical section through the stove, from front to back, and near to one of its sides so as to pass through a flue A, situated the side of the door opening into the chamber `of combustion. Fig. 3, is a vertical section from sidev to side, near the front, so asto pass through both of the flues A A, one of which is on each side of the fire place door a, Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section at, or a little above, the plane of the `hearth b, Fig. l. Fig. 5, is a vertical section across the stove, between the boiler holes c, c, Fig. 1.

The fire which is intended to be of wood, is made in the fire `boX or chamber 0i, ,the sides C, C, Fig. 5, the bottom e, theflanches or ledges'ez, e2, and the back end of which are cast in one entire piece, and it extends from the door a Fig. 1, to the hot air Hue El Fig. 2, the ledges C2, C2 resting upon projections on the side plates; this casting the re boX in one entire piece, secures it against the danger of warping, and prevents the falling of ashes into the oven. On each side of the ire boX there is a hot air chamber, or flue within which air is to be heated, which is admitted into these chambers througl'i openings in the side plates, as at L, 1L, Fig. 1. These chambers are shown in the section at E E, Fig. 5, and at E, E, Fig. 4. In Fig.

5, g, g, are plates which separate these air chambers fromthe'oven, the samebeing rep1 resented by dotted lines in Fig.` 2.V There are openings at the rear ends of these air chambers through which the heated air passes into the oven as indicated bythe arrow 71 and similar openings into the fiue at the front of the stove, through which the `air and vapor escapes from the oven, as indicated by the arrow z'. The course of the draft from the fire is indicated by thearrows j, j, j, that is to say it passes over the closed space E, which is open into the oven descending through the flue B, at the back ofthe stove, returning under the oven along B to the ascending flue C'formed like the back end of the stove there is a close fitting door, or stopper which when open ad- .mits of the removal of ashes, &c., from the lower flue.v The same thing ina-y be ef- V.termination of the tire box, .above the infected by making the lower plate of the i from the fire into the escape flue, there is a valve at C, the effect `of which will be ap parentiV D .shows a tin oven by means of which roasting may be effected at the back of the stove.

`Having thus fully described the mode of constructing, and the operation of my vimproved cooking stove I do hereby declare that what I claim as of my own'finvention therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, consists- 1. In the making the bottom, sides, and, flanches, of the fire box in .one single piece, for the purpose ofpreventing the warping of the plates, and the escape of ashes in the oven.

2. I claim the particular manner of conveyingl the draft aroundythe oven, so `as eventually to carry it up in front, on each SAM. S. Mo'r'r, `ALBERT STONE.
